My question(s): Is it possible to flash the card via my mac (but at the moment I can't see anything as black screen) or use an external mac (as don't have a windows machine). For example, is it possible to boot the computer via an external mac through firewire and then do the flashing? The card has two 6 pins so they would be occupy all my slots.
